1 When Safety Comes First Emergency Safety Shower and Eye Wash Catalogue

2 No industry, irrespective of its size or its function, can afford to neglect the safety of its personnel and the general public. Advances in technological and chemical production require increased vigilance in protecting employees from death or serious injury as a result of contact with hazardous materials. The ready, abundant and properly-directed supply of water to flush away corrosive or flammable materials in the case of accidents is vital. With this in mind, SPRAYDRENCH offers a range of safety showers and eye wash stations that are manufactured to exacting standards. Our products are computer-engineered and made in South Africa according to international specifications. They are available in a variety of formats and materials designed to suit a wide range of applications. SPRAYDRENCH Safety Showers are ideal for use in industry, mines and laboratories. They are durable, easy to install and require low maintenance. If safety comes first for your business, we trust that this brochure will help you put that philosophy into practice efficiently and with confidence. When Safety Comes First Quality Standards All SPRAYDRENCH safety showers, eye and face wash stations have been designed in accordance with the following safety and quality standards: - DIN : EN : EN : ANSI : I.SO Quality Only components and materials of highest quality are used throughout. Safety Each shower displays a unique serial number and maintenance record, ensuring total control and effective maintenance. We recommend that all SPRAYDRENCH safety showers be installed and maintained according to the ANSI Z standard. Each shower is tested for a pressure capacity of 550 kpa. Operating pressure may vary from 100 to 300 kpa. 01 Safety Features Our range of industrial safety showers, eye and face wash stations are designed and intended for installation in the harshest environments. The modular design offers a wide range of interchangeability and flexibility, allowing the customisation of units to suit customer demands. All CLASSIC LINE products are Epoxy coated for extended life. All PREMIUM LINE products are manufactured entirely of stainless steel for everlasting use. Self-draining features on both the shower nozzles and pipe work to ensure healthy water and maintenance free operation. All PREMIUM LINE products are extremely robust, and noncorroding. Ideal operation at very low water pressures, from 50 kpa to 300 kpa. DIN EN :2006 The upper edge of the spray head must be installed /- 200mm above floor level. The spray head(s) must be at least 150 mm away from the nearest wall or obstruction. The valve should be fully open after a rotation of the manual control of a maximum of 90 degrees or pull of the manual control of a maximum of 200 mm. Eye showers must be supplied with drinking water or water of similar quality. Eye showers should feature a flow volume of at least 6 litres per minute. Water output must be guaranteed for a period of at least 15 minutes. The jet of water supplied by the spray heads can have a height of 100mm to 300mm.

3 Safety Standards All SPRAYDRENCH products have been designed in the interest of worker safety, and are intended to accompany and complement, NOT replace or substitute the use of correct safety equipment and other protective devices. It is recommended that consideration should be given to the practice of establishing a first aid response team. This would incorporate the full extent of all safety equipment, the correct installation, use and maintenance of which the SPRAYDRENCH range of products would be an integral part. All employees must also be equipped and trained accordingly. In the event of an accident, a physician or medical doctor should always be contacted. Additional equipment: In addition to the safety signage as supplied with SPRAYDRENCH products, users may be interested in installing additional alarms. As an option SPRAYDRENCH offers a wide range of products, including an audible alarm, complete with flashing beacon and a 10-day battery backup. In addition to the above, these units may be connected electronically or via radio link to a central control point for efficient monitoring and site management. Notes: In order to offer as complete a range of safety equipment as possible, certain popular and/or economic models not conforming to ANSI have been retained. All new SPRAYDRENCH products have been designed according to - DIN : EN : EN : ANSI : I.SO standards. These standards are intended to provide a minimum standard for the installation, use and performance of the emergency shower and eye wash equipment. =800 =400 = 030 =200 =1 0 0 =700 1 SAFETY STANDARDS Safety Standards INDEX =500 =400 =200 SAFETY SHOWERS Fully Automatic Safety Showers Platform-Operated Safety Showers Polypropylene Safety Showers Manually-Operated Safety Showers Epoxy Coated Safety Showers Manually-Operated Overhead/Ceiling Showers EYE WASH STATIONS High Performance Face and Eye Wash Stations = =1000 =1000 GENERAL WASH STATIONS Hand Wash Stations and Drinking Fountains 36 Eye / face wash equipment is a requirement in all laboratories where chemicals are used. All workplaces with similar risks should have access to state of the art equipment. Acids and alkaline solutions, in particular, even at high concentrations, can penetrate the cornea and damage the eye permanently. The immediate provision of first aid is crucial to restrict the amount of damage. Even the penetration of foreign particles, e.g. fine dust particles, into the eye represents a risk that is not to be underestimated. SPRAYDRENCH high-perfomance spray heads ensure the large-scale dispersion of water. Additionally, all our eye showers feature a flow control, which guarantees the proper volume flow and the right jet configuration in accordance with the applicable standards. All SPRAYDRENCH eye showers meet the requirements of DIN EN :2006.
